Jumped right in on this one. Sharkwerks X-pipe, Techart Springs, DPE wheel (can't share which ones quite yet)

Gonna take about a month before everything arrives but I'm excited. It drives so well right now, and I'm looking forward to the changes.

Pictures will come.

You'll definitely like the Sharkwerks pipe. Do you have PASM or SPASM on your GTS. Please take some before and after photos with the Techart springs.

Looking forward to seeing the new look.

Sounds like some nice upgrades. I would really look at a set of Coil Overs instead of springs, much better suspension.

SharkWerks pipes were the best mod I've done to my GTS to date...and I can't seem to think of another one that would do the car more justice. I RARELY listen to the radio, it sounds that good.

Can't wait to see more. I've considered lowering, but held off for now.

Do you guys get a nice burbble with the SW pipe? I find the DFI engines don't sound as good as the 997.1 engines.

Hehe thanks man and we did a PSE'd GTS here a couple of weeks ago that whizzed by my window on the way out. Sort of like a Top Gun fly by:P I didn't spill my coffee though...

My wife always claims that she can hear me coming from a couple of blocks away, which I called BS on. That is until she ran an errand in my car the other day...damn what a good sound to hear...especially when it's my wife RETURNING HOME in my car.

Now, as for the eye-lashes: I seriously hope to never see these on a Porsche:

Yup, these are the ones. I was kidding of course. Glad someone got it.
